Well that was a surprise for the holidays. Uh, i'd say there been some MK1 accessibility changes. I was greeted with a new voice when I booted up this patch. Festival voices no more. 24 gig download on Xbox by the way.

Ranger1138,

@threlm4280 I'm not sure if this is platform specific, probably says in the patch notes when they're released, but it's Microsoft TTS on my Xbox

Ranger1138,

@Orinks @threlm4280 Servers are down, while they're updating, but I was able to see that you could read the customization of fighter and cameo. And read things that are on sale in the shop. So it's a huge patch, but it comes with a bunch of great stuff

Ranger1138,

@Orinks @threlm4280 Custom fighter, custom cameo and shops red when I tested it. Before the servers went down for maintenance

Ranger1138,

@blindndangerous @pitermach @Orinks @threlm4280 I'm on Xbox, is anybody heard what voices are the default on PC?

Ranger1138,

@pitermach @blindndangerous @Orinks @threlm4280 @talon That's what I suspected. The Microsoft TTS mispronounces things in its own special way. You never really completely can ignore it either. Since the announcer pronounces names correctly, then TTS will say it incorrectly shortly there after and towers. It's funny and sad. There's vault controls for speech now, but not speech rate. Festival was faster btw

Ranger1138,

@pitermach @blindndangerous @Orinks @threlm4280 @talon Ricky agrees with you about spelling. But there's definitely some artifacting from Roman numerals reading as regular numbers. Microsoft David mobile, is probably what's going on here, since Xbox OS is based off of Windows 10/minwin

Ranger1138,

@matt @pitermach @blindndangerous @Orinks @threlm4280 @talon Cool, thanks for the correction. It does use the mobile version of narrator right?

Santa might have his naughty and nice list. But I'm about to create one for retailers who are using accessiBe sitewide. And then requesting that they not use it anymore. One major retailer just made my life hell because of that. Can't say who, it would give away too much for a gift, check me after the 25th.

Ranger1138,

@matt Thanks, I remembered that. Was on mobile.
